Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Eris. at Free against CallTimes's $17.99. Eris. also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). CallTimes's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
